4. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
4.1 Special features
Your new washing machine meets all
modern requirements for an effective
treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption and
proper care of fabric.
The SoftWater Technology acts as
water softener and removes harsh
minerals from the inlet water and
supplies soft water for the washing.
Wash after wash, fabric stiffness,
shrinkage and colour fading are
prevented.
The Oko-Mix technology has been
designed to protect the fabric fibres
thanks to different pre-mixing phases
that dissolves first the detergent and
then fabric softener in the water
before they are distributed in the
laundry. So every fibre is reached and
cared for.
The ProSense technology detects
the laundry load size defining the
programme duration in 30 seconds.
The washing programme is tailored to
the laundry load and the type of fabric
without consuming more time, energy
and water than necessary.
The steam has a quick and easy way
to refresh the clothes. The gentle
steam programmes remove odours
and reduce creases in dry fabrics so
they need little ironing.
The Plus Steam option, finishes every
cycle with gentle steam that relaxes
the fibres and reduces fabric creasing.
Ironing will be easier!
The Stains option pre-treats stubborn
stains optimizing the effectiveness of
the stain remover.
Thanks to the Soft Plus option, the
fabric softener is uniformly spread out
in the laundry and deeply penetrates
the fabric fibres favouring a perfect
softness.

5. THE WATER SOFTENER (SOFTWATER
TECHNOLOGY)
5.1 Introduction
The water contains harsh minerals. The
higher the content of these minerals the
harder the water is.
Hard water can reduce the effectiveness
of the detergent, reduce the softness of
fabrics and contribute towards shrinkage
and colour fading.
This appliance is equipped with a water
softener able to provide the right degree
of water softening to preserve the fabric
integrity, colour brightness and ensuring
good wash performances at low
temperature.
The water softener should be adjusted
according to the water hardness of your
inlet water. A correct setting allows to
achieve the best washing results and the
maximum garments protection.
To set the water softener correctly,
please refer to 'How to set the water
hardness level'.
5.2 How to set the water
hardness level
The appliance allows you to chose
between 7 levels corresponding to 7
different ranges of water hardness.
Depending on the country, the water
hardness is expressed in equivalent
scales: e.g. French degrees (°f), German
degrees (°d), English degrees (°e),
mmol/l and ppm.
If necessary, please contact your local
water authority to check the water
hardness in your area.
Check in the "Water hardness levels"
table which is the proper level.
To set the water hardness level:
1. Press the On/Off button for a few
seconds to activate the appliance.
2. Wait about 10 seconds for appliance
internal check.
3. Touch the Stains/Prewash and the
Plus Steam buttons simultaneously
(by touching the two buttons at the
same instant, as shown in the next
drawing) for some seconds until the
display shows the default level C04
and the indicator
goes on. It
means the water softener is active
during washing only.
ENGLISH
13
4. Touch repeatedly the Stains/Prewash
button until the desired level appears
(from C01 to C07).
5. Touch the Start/Pause button to
confirm your choice and exit the
menu.
How to set the water softener
also during rinse phase
The factory setting allows to soften the
water during washing phase only. This
setting satisfies most of the use
condition. However, if the inlet water is
particularly hard (C06 and C07 levels),
we suggest to set the water softener also
during rinsing phase to preserve the
fabric softness.
Once you have entered the menu by
pressing Stains/Prewash and the Plus
Steam buttons:
1. Touch the Plus Steam button. The
goes on.
This setting increases
the salt consumption.
2. Touch the Start/Pause button to
confirm your choice and exit the
menu.
How to deactivate the water
softener
Once you have entered the menu by
pressing Stains/Prewash and the Plus
Steam buttons:
1. By touching the Plus Steam button
twice, the water softener is excluded
completely. The indicator
and
go off and the appears in
the display.
2. Touch the Start/Pause button to
confirm your choice and exit the
menu.

Regularly check if there is
enough salt.
The compartment
can contain about
600 gr of salt that are sufficient for about
20 - 300 washing cycles (or 4 - 70 weeks)
depending on the set water hardness
level and whether the water softener is
activated during wash phase only. If the
water softener is activated also during
rinse phase, the salt refilling lasts 5 - 80
washing cycles (or 1 - 18 weeks)
depending on the set water hardness
level. Refer to 'How to set the water
hardness level'.
The display shows the indicator
when
compartment
needs to be refilled
with salt, even if a little salt still remains.
WARNING!
Pour the salt in the
compartment
only.
WARNING!
Do not put anything but salt
in the compartment
. If
any other detergent/additive
is poured inadvertently in
this compartment, please
refer to 'Eliminating
detergent or other additives
from salt compartment' in
'Troubleshooting' chapter.
Only use special salt for
dishwasher and/or washing
machine. The proper salt can
be ordered form the web
site!
Other types of salts are less
efficient and over time could
damage the water softener
technology permanently. Do
not use fine salt!
The appliance works
normally even without salt,
but without exploiting its full
potential. If you use the
appliance without salt for a
long time, once the salt is
finally refilled, the water
softener function is
completely restored after a
few long washing cycles.
